Triptych (Eyes of One On Another) Makes Its Debut

Tonight, Triptych (Eyes of One On Another)—the study of Robert Mapplethorpe’s life, work, and legacy, by Bryce Dessner and featuring Roomful of Tooth—gets its premiere with the L.A. Phil at the Walt Disney Concert Hall.

In a Los Angeles Times preview, Dessner digs into his childhood inspiration for the production, while director Kaneza Schaal digs into the ways the past controversy around Mapplethorpe’s images still reflects the way we think about sexuality. Read about Triptych, and see its third production at Big Ears 2019 in just three weeks.
